ColdFusion Studio wizards - view/edit records & RecordMaster

Anyone use Recordmaster wizard from back in the CF Studio
days?? Sometimes I really miss it! Is there anything comparable
available today for the current toolset (CFeclipse or Dreamweaver)?
RecordMaster was a little automated wizard thing that you could
just point to a DSN and a table, and it would build a nifty set of
basic pages to do admin stuff, namely view, add, edit and delete
records. Very good start to build quick and dirty admin pages, and
super easy.
There was even a little built in Studio wizard that would
generate record view/edit/delete pages. All just basic cfm, no
cfc's.
Anyhing? I've got to build some admin type pages here on a
table with lots of fields and don't want to do it all from scratch.
If I can't find anything, I may search my CD archives for an old
version of Studio just to use RecordMaster! What do others use for
fast creation of database record admin pages???

Dan, it sounds like you never used CF Studio.
CF Studio from Allaire, had these "wizards" that you could
use to auto generate pages. All it needed was the ability to
connect to a DNS and it would do its thing. simple and easy. This
was done on the development side, the pages that were created were
then loaded to the live server where a client could use them via a
browser. Easy as ebay.
Your solutions sounds like it works well for you. However it
is not such a great solution for a basic client sitting in some
office. SQL Plus, and Access are not something my client has or is
interested in learning, or are we interested in changing the
database over to Oracle.
Does anyone on this list have a solution to ease the work
involved in creating these "View/edit/delete" pages by hand?

    Not exactly what you are looking for, but take a look at
    reactor (
    http://www.alagad.com/go/products-and-projects/reactor-for-coldfusion).
    It will create a database abstration layer on-the-fly for simple
    CRUD operations. A similar solution would be Illudium PU-36 (
    http://cfcgenerator.riaforge.org/).
    Similar concept to reactor, but used for one-time
    generation.

  • Multiple users viewing/editing common records

    Hi all. I'm running tomcat 5.5.17. My webapp involves creating/viewing/editing/saving records from a database. Multiple users can login to the app, and so multiple users may view a record. I want to avoid two users viewing & editing the same record, and then saving. Of course, the one who saves last will dictate what actually stays in the DB.
    An easy-way-out I thought of was...I can keep a list in the servlet context, and when a user views a record, add their name, the record id, and a timestamp to this list. Then, it's easy to check who has been viewing/editing a record in the last X minutes, so it's equally easy to display a warning saying "Users also viewing this record in the last 10 minutes: User1, User2, User3." Whenever I add someone to the list, I'd also remove all stale entries (ones which have been in the list for longer than X minutes).
    This isn't a great way to do it, of course. Optimally, I'd want to add and remove users from this list in real-time. Adding is no problem...I can execute whatever commands I need to in the servlet/jsp to add them to the list. Removing though...how can I remove them from the list? Well...WHEN do I want to remove them? When they stop viewing the record. As in, when they browse away from the page. Javascript has a window.onbeforeunload = function() { //do stuff } function...but I can't really run any jsp through there. Unless I open a new window which runs some jsp and closes immediately, but what kind of a solution is that.
    Any suggestions?

    Yeah, change your requirements.
    In my opinion it should be the other way around: the first user who gets the record dictates the resulting state in the database, not the last one. One way to prevent multiple users from overwriting each others changes (a very rare occurence, but possible) is to use all the fields in a record to generate a where clause for the update or delete statement.
    Example:
    A record exists with a name field set to 'bill gates'.
    User 1 selects this record
    User 2 selects the same record
    User 1 changes field 'name' to 'larry laffer'
    User 1 saves the changed record to the database
    User 2 changes one of the fields (BUT STILL HAS 'bill gates' AS THE NAME!)
    User 2 saves the changed record to the database
    Now in the where clause used in the update statement for user 2, somewhere there will be and name='bill gates'. This condition is now no longer true since the name was changed by user 1. The result: the update for user 2 will fail , 0 rows updated.
    A very, very rare sql exception is always better than changes being lost in my opinion.

  • HOW TO: Use Input tags to edit records

    The question has been asked, "What does using the BC4J Input data tags provide
    over standard HTML input fields?" It is true that either type of input field allows
    your JSP to take user input and update your BC4J datasource. Both types of input
    fields submit a name-value pair to a JSP processing page that bind the data with
    a datasource row and attribute. However, unless you use the BC4J Input data tags,
    users will not be able to edit data in existing records. To see the difference,
    use the JDeveloper DataPage Wizard to create an Insert Record form and an Edit
    Record form.</p>
    To create the Insert Record form:</p>
    <ol>
    [*]Use the Business Components Wizard to create an entity object and view object for a database table you can update.
    [*]In the same project or another project, if you wish, use the DataPage Wizard to create an Insert Form for the view object.
    [*]Look in your JSP project folder in the Navigator and notice that two pages were generated: one JSP to render the insert HTML form and the other JSP to process the incoming parameters.
    [*]Open the file VO_Insert.jsp and notice that it does not use the BC4J input data tags.
    </ol>
    In the Insert form, the input data tags are not needed to render static HTML form elements such as empty text fields. It is important to note, however, that the name of these text fields corresponds to the attributes of your selected view object. This is extremely important because the processing page looks for parameters corresponding to the names of the attributes to update the view object datasource.</p>
    Now, create the Edit Record form:
    <ol>
    [*]Use the DataPage Wizard again, but this time select Edit Form for the view
    object.
    [*]Open the file VO_Edit.jsp and notice that it uses the BC4J input data tags,
    which contain the prefix <jbo:Input ...>.
    [*]Look in your JSP project folder in the Navigator and again notice that two
    pages were generated: one JSP to render the edit HTML form and the other JSP
    to process the incoming parameters.
    [*]Open the file VO_Edit.jsp and notice that it uses the BC4J input data tags.
    </ol>
    In the Edit form, the BC4J input data tags are needed because in this case,
    the page has to query the current value of the record and place that data into
    the text field. The Edit form uses a second page to process the edited values.</p>
    To summarize the differences:</p>
    Use the <jbo:Input ...> data tags when you need to create an Edit Existing Record type of JSP page. This page will query the current data from the view object datasource and display it in each input field.
    OR
    Use standard HTML input fields when you do not need to query the database to show existing records. This is the case in a static Insert Record form where only empty HTML fields are rendered.
    The end goal of each Input tag is to supply a name-value pair to a processing
    page which will then update the database according to the value passed to it.
    For example in order to update the &quot;Ename&quot; column of the Emp table,
    a name-value pair such as Ename=&quot;smith&quot; must be passed via an HTML
    form to a processing page. The processing page will then be able to update the
    table with the new value of the attribute using the following code:
    <jbo:Row id="myrow" datasource="ds" rowkeyparam="MyRowKey" action="Update">
    <jbo:SetAttribute dataitem="*"/>
    </jbo:Row>
    </p>
    By setting the attribute 'dataitem=&quot;*&quot;' in the SetAttribute tag,
    it is able to update all database columns where a name-value pair is supplied.
    The SetAttribute tag must be used inside of the Row tag to allow an operation
    on a single row.</p>
    The Row tag is able to identify a specific row through the rowkeyparam attribute.
    The rowkeyparam takes the HTML request parameter that contains the value of
    a BC4J rowkey. It is the BC4J rowkey that uniquely identifies the row within
    a rowset. By default Row tag by default obtains the rowkey for the cu rrent row.
    (You can also specify the row when you want to perform a Find action as explained
    in the OTN topic &quot;How To: Navigating Using DataTags&quot;.)
    </p>

    Ok. I didn't understand your question.
    You have to do some settings for adding new  rows for the analysis grid in Analyzer. And in the new rows you can input the characteristic values. To enable the new rows
    In Analyzer - uncheck the setting Suppress New Lines in the proprties of the Analysis grid item.
    In WAD - Check the property Number of New Lines (NEW_LINES_COUNT) of Analysis grid item. You use this parameter to insert any required number of empty rows into the table. The parameter is set to 0 by default.

  • Error when calling skillbuilder popup in edit-record mode

    Apexers,

    Hi,
    How do you define the "URL Location" in the dynamic action "Settings" region when calling the plugin? Is it "Statically Defined"? If yes, please make sure that you are setting the URL to the target page correctly - you need to set the appropriate page items of the target page in the URL definition.
    If the URL is being set properly, make sure that the target page has a page process (before/after header) to load the contents correctly.
    Apex 4.1.1/oracle 11gR2 ; issue happens in FF & IE
    any help please?
    thanks.So, what happens in other browsers - chrome?

  • Coldfusion Application Wizard?

    I was trying to access the Coldfusion Application Wizard in
    Flex 3 Beta and it told me it's unavailable. So I switched back to
    my install of Eclipse 3.2 with Flex 2 and I don't have an option
    for the Coldfusion Application Wizard under File -> New ->
    Other. Can anyone supply a link to where I can download the
    Application Wizard? I looked on labs.adobe.com but I didn't see any
    Coldfusion extensions.
    Why doesn't it work in Flex 3? :)
    Thanks!

    Hi Randy,
    Are you on Windows or Mac? Also, if you could check the
    Eclipse/Flex Builder error log to see if any errors were logged at
    the time of the crash, that would be very helpful. The error log is
    a text file called ".log" in "<workspace-dir>/.metadata". You
    can also access it through Flex Builder, by going to Help >
    About, then Configuration Details, then View Error Log, or
    something like that.

  • Possible to edit recording created through LSMW?

    I created a Batch Input Recording through LSMW. In the recording, a node has got created which doesn't have an OKCode. As a result, when I process the recording, the transaction halts in between due to lack of OKCode (I have pasted a part of the recording at the bottom. The node in Bold Italic is the problem.)
    In order to overcome this issue, I have to edit the recording & remove the node completely. OR I could create an OKCode entry (for an ENTER press) in the node. But I am not able to edit the recording. I am only able to add & delete Screen fields. OKCode not being a Screen field is not available for addition.
    Does LSMW not give the functionality to edit recordings at all? If it so, how can I use an edited recording created through SHDB in LSMW?
    <u>A partial view of the recording follows:</u>
    >>>SAPLOIRB_APP03 321                                                                               
    BDC_CURSOR                     ROIRB0320-VALID_FROM
        BDC_OKCODE                     =ENTE              
        ROIRB0320-STATUS                                  
        ROIRB0320-VALID_FROM                              
    <i><b>>>>SAPMOIFA 0165                                                                               
    BDC_SUBSCR                     SAPMOIFA
        BDC_SUBSCR                     SAPMOIFA
        BDC_SUBSCR                     SAPMOIFA
        BDC_SUBSCR                     SAPMOIFA
        BDC_SUBSCR                     SAPMOIFA
        BDC_SUBSCR                     SAPMOIFA
        BDC_SUBSCR                     SAPMOIFA</b></i>
    >>>SAPMOIFA 0165                                                                               
    BDC_OKCODE                     =SAVE       
        BDC_SUBSCR                     SAPMOIFA    
        BDC_CURSOR                     OIFSPBL-PBLNR

    I went ahead & completed remaining all the LSMW steps. Then I processed the created session in foreground & tracked the OKCode on each screen.
    It ran perfectly upto the screen prior to the problematic node. When it got to processing the problematic node, the OKCode command dialog box remained empty. This is perfectly understandable since in the recording itself there is no line item for OKCode. Unfortunately, it did not skip processing and move onto the next node which had a 'SAVE' OKCode.
    This is where the transaction halted & manual intervention was required.
    Coming back to square one, I have to somehow get rid of the node or find a way to insert a OKCode line item into the recording.
    Did SAP tell you that it not possible to edit an LSMW recording? It is not possible to use an SHDB recording in LSMW either?

  • ISE 1.2 Sponsor Group - "View/Edit Accounts" Setting not working as expected

    Hi,
    we need a sponsor account that is not allowed to see the Account List (so the Accounts that were created) on the sponsor UI. The sponsor should be only allowed to create an account, to send his credentials via E-Mail or to print them.. and that's all
    So I configured the rights as you can see in the attachment, but when I choose No for "View/Edit Accounts" the user is able to see ALL ACCOUNTS. When I just choose "Own Accounts" then the user sees just his own Accounts, so the 2nd setting works properly.. the first behaviour seems like a bug to me.. did anyone else have had this problem too?
    Thanks!

    Choose one of the following options for View/Edit Accounts:
    –No—Sponsors are not allowed to edit any guest accounts.
    –All Accounts—Sponsors are allowed to edit/view all guest accounts.
    –Group Accounts—Sponsors are allowed to edit guest accounts created by anyone in the same sponsor user group.
    –Own Account—Sponsors are allowed to edit only the guest accounts they created.
